Photo of the Week - It's Cold Enough for a Polar Bear!

Churchill, Manitoba, Canada

It seems that the majority of the U.S. right now is enduring a deep freeze right now. So I thought a new polar bear photo would be timely! Frigid weather doesn’t bother an old bear like this one, but he’s got a terrific fur coat. Our Tennessee area hit a new record low temperature yesterday of 2 degrees F. The previous record for the date was 6 degrees F in 1970.

The temps plus the wind chill are doing me in! I had to walk through a wide open parking lot last night and I thought I might actually freeze to death before I got to my car. My scalp even hurt (and I have a lot of hair) Lol

I'm with Judith, I can hardly walk with all that I have to wear. Not to mention the sheet of ice that seems to have covered our world. It sure looks pretty though. I must get out there and take some photos. Great photo, he's gorgeous.

Yeah, the environ-mentally challenged don't know what to do with this thing, so they alternate between calling it the end of the world and telling us we're all stupid for bringing up the word "warming." Meanwhile it's going to be nearly 70 degrees here tomorrow. BTW I thought the polar bears were extinct, or nearly? That we'd killed them all? Apparently not, as you've met a number of adorable ones who appear to love having their picture made! xoxo ~the Pirate

Contrary to the fictional hysteria that is circulated by the mainstream media and liberals who want to remove large quantities of carbon tax money from your wallets, the polar bear population is not in danger. A comprehensive study by First People residents, based on actual sightings (not extrapolated data concocted in a warm USA university setting), confirm that the population is thriving.

And yes, I found many adorable polar bears who looked at me with great fondness - not for my photographic capabilities - but for my meaty proportions.
